Q: I noted and likely your strategy to add to XHY for income and possible capital gains. However, when I looked at high yield corp. bond ETFs, ZJK looked better overall. There is also the matter of CAD hedging. I'm looking to park cash for my 2023 RIF withdrawal this December and I've been using the BMO HISA for this. Can I have your opinion on using ZJK or XHY instead for about 2% higher income?

Q: Profitability, why is this so difficult to achieve for LSPD? Is one reason that the CAO and Board are still continuing to be driven or leaning to expansion and therefore changing to control control is difficult to achieve? But that does not make sense because we have heard they want to be profitable in 2024! I am confused. Clayton

Q: Hi 5i,

Is there an explanation somewhere as to the meaning of the % at the bottom right corner of the Income Model Portfolio? The headings are: Portfolio; Benchmark; Active. An explanation of each line in the chart would help me understand the relevance.

Thanks for the help.
John

Q: Hello, This is not a question about stocks but more towards interest rate and the effect on markets. How can the US un-employment rate still be around the 5% when we hear of mass layoffs everyday from major companies? It would seem that the 5% is skewed so as to give reason for the fed to keep raising rates which in turn would seem to affect the markets.
